The pay is low for what is expected from this position. You are told that you only have to log in once a day to check emails and make your own schedule. This is simply not true. You are expected to be on multiple Online Meetings weekly that do not fit your schedule. Owner lies about his connections with Podcasts. He may have been on them, but he cannot get the clients on them. He is a liar and expects you to be the one to break the news to the client. He will not back you up. He will get on a call with you and the client, with you believing he will say one thing, then BAM he tells the client the complete opposite. There is no training for the position and you are expected to be able to navigate the complications set forth by the Owner and how he feels in that moment. There is no honesty or integrity with IV. They lie to employees and clients. You will have to lie to clients. IV believes this is just how business is done. Do not dare state your opinion EVER. This will only lead to the end of your time IV. When the Owner states he does not like "cynics" he means he doesn't like employees that point out flaws in a plan and gives alternative solutions. The audacity of an employee explaining why something will not work and that another solution should be considered. How dare you have a brain and thought process of your own. If you want to be a robot, stay silent, never speak up for what you are thinking this job is for you. If you are good at smiling when it is miserable, when you can laugh at jokes that are mysoginistic, when you can let racist comments slide...this job is for you. He likes to hire females and only has one POC as an employee at a time, if you are okay with that...this job is for you. It is not stated but implied to check your platform in the morning, midday, and evening everyday. You catch up on work on the weekend. Train yourself and be available 24/7 because clients will call you from all time zones. You only work 20 hours a week but you are tied to your computer all day 7 days a week. He lies to you and so will your "trainers". I use that term lightly because again you do not get trained. You get an email and are expected to just figure it out. Even though I processed more leads, more contacts with clients, got client statuses above anyone else in my position, that was not good enough for him. He didn't like my honesty. If you can think for yourself, don't work here.
